Full Description

February 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
Two possible post medieval flint mine shafts are visible as earthworks on imagery from a 2015 lidar survey (S1). They have been mapped by extent. They are one of a number of such sites recorded in the area. Given the recent date of the lidar survey it is likely that they still survive as earthworks.
